Panic attacks and blood diet
Hi Becky!
Your panic attacks should improve if you are allergic to something and stop eating that product.
Here is why:
All reactions in our bodies are chemical. Your emotions are neuro-chemical. Panic attacks are caused by chemicals surging through your body.
When you consume something your body cannot process, you are having improper chemical reactions. Basically, when you eat wheat - your body chemicals (ALL OF THEM) are outta whack!
So yes, your panic attacks should improve. Panic attacks are fear. When I stopped eating wheat (I'm a type O - allergic to wheat) this crazy constant emotion of fear I had always had stopped. I'm not scared anymore.
For some reason I find that fear, panic, etc. is common with food allergens.
Give yourself 1-3 months. And allow your mind to process the change. :)
All the best,
Kate

Re: Just what exactly is Lifestyle photography?
Dale,
I hope I was not too cynical. Lifestyle is a legitamate category, but it is often (at least in my experiance) used to cover whatever the AD can't actually describe or visualize very well. I do understand the problem since I have had to sit on the other side of the table and figure out how to visualize vague or difficult concepts for ad design. Even so, I get a little irritated when scenes that are clearly staged with actors/models in fully dressed high end locations are called 'lifestyle'. I would just call them 'advertising' and leave it at that.
Don't think you can't or shouldn't get experiance doing this sort of thing. Even if you don't have a big budget you can get good shots of people in activities that can add to your portfolio. I just took a quick tour of a couple members sites cruising for 'lifestyle' stuff. There are some very high end shots that you could still replicate on some scale for little money. Several sites show people playing golf/tennis, shopping, excercising, etc...Of course in many cases these shots were staged with several people, lighting, and crew, but version (good looking ones) could be re-staged with one or two models (friends or work-trade models) as long as you can get the location to allow you to shoot. You may have to go available light or just use a fill light/reflector, but it can be done. Take a look at what good portait guys do on locations - they find the light and background, then exploit it.
Balancing people and setting is tough. That is why photographers and cinematographers who do it well are sought after, but learning to do this sort of shot is important. Often architecture without people is just an empty stage. Sure some of it is worthy as art alone, but much only comes to life when people enter the picture. You may also find oportunities to build your skills on shots for non-profits or other groups that need help - a donation of some images might be less expensive than a seminar, and can build good relationships for you as well.
Good Luck,
Cecil

everyone is just scared and wants to fit in
I believe that too that there are no coincidences. I also think if someone is supposed to be in your life they will be brought into your life one way or another you dont have to do anything it will just happen
Without a doubt. This has been true my whole life. I'm really glad to have found threads such as this...connecting with others who are like me. I've felt so different all my life... realizing now, that maybe it's the "others" that are diffent...not us.
One of my favorite things to say is that Im not fucked up its the rest of the world thats fucked,lol
I have always felt like I was different and I kind of just went with that. I have taught my kids to be different
I mean really why be just like everyone else. I like to think of it as thinking outside of the box.
Now that Im an adult(Im 40) I notice that everyone is just scared and wants to fit in with everyone else but no one is really sure of what they want to fit into, especially when I do my readings alot of people are just lost outside of themselves. I wish I knew all of this when I was growing up it may not of been so painful

The sun always sets
No matter how the day is, the sun will set and tomorrow it will rise again. Tomorrow is another chance.
